Special Notes

In order to operate this product, a compatible Fanatec Wheel Base (not included) is mandatory!

Connect your Wheel Base to a PC and install the latest driver to update the wheel base firmware before you mount the Universal Hub for Xbox One.

If your ClubSport Wheel Base (V1 or V2) is restarting again and again by itself and being unable ...

If your ClubSport Wheel Base (V1 or V2) is restarting again and again by itself and being unable to complete the boot sequence you might have forgotten to update your Wheel Base Firmware BEFORE you put on the new wheel rim or wheel hub!

Please always download (from product page) and install the latest CSW Base Driver onto your PC. Start the wheel base without your new wheel rim/hub. Open the driver control panel. Install the embedded firmware by navigating to the "update" tab in the browser. All further steps will be explained there.

This is no isssue. The firmware of the ClubSport Wheel Base evolves continously and has to prepared for every possible new product which can be attached. Additionally we are always working to improve the performance of the device.

IMPORTANT:

Please also keep in mind that the driver also contains relevant firmware updates for other devices (as the CS USB Adapter, CSP V3, etc.). Those devices can be updated in the same way when connected by USB.

The firmware updates are also important if the hardware is used on consoles! You will have connect the devices to your PC by USB (for less than 5 minutes) to perform the update.

Since Microsoft dropped their own support (April 2014) of Windows XP after more than 13 years we are not longer able to support this PC platform. The last wheels/pedals/shifter driver which supports Windows XP is driver 144. Later driver versions use new software technology which is just not possible on Windows XP.

If your hardware or a new firmware requires a newer operation system we only can recommend to upgrade your Windows operating system to a newer version which will not be outdated for a longer while.

We have received a couple reports that driver v261 cannot be installed on some Win7 PCs. The root cause is that Windows 7 Updates sometimes are not working as expected. Windows 7 is not aware of recent verification signatures. Therefore we needed to export a special driver for Windows 7 which includes our old driver signature as well. Please try this driver if you are experiencing issues like that:

CSW V2 and V2.5 users can also use our latest beta driver (V281) which resolves the issue as well:
https://www.fanatec.com/forum/discussion/547/fanatec-beta-driver-v281-for-csw-v2-and-v2-5/p1

This driver also works well for other Windows versions (Win7, Win8, Win8.1, Win10). Feel free to test this driver if you are having any issues installing the latest official driver v261 and let our support team know. Thank you!

EVERY PC game can use extended features (display, vibration, rev LEDs, rev Stripe, etc.) of our Fanatec Wheel products as well as ABS software controlled vibration (CSP pedals) but the game developer has to implement those features. We are rolling out the SDK right now (Okt. 2012)to them and they can implement whatever they want.

We are often asked if all Fanatec Xbox One compatible hardware works also on the Xbox One X (or One S). The answer is YES. According to Microsoft the Xbox One X is "just" another Xbox One like the original version or the One S. This is the original MS statement:

"Compatible with everything Xbox One

All Xbox One accessories work with Xbox One X

All the Xbox One accessories you’ve got now (or have got your eye on) work with Xbox One X. No hassle. Just play."

We are asked very often, if gloves should be used on our wheels to keep them in good condition. The question cannot answered that easily. In general, gloves can help to keep the wheel clean and protect it sweat. But on the other hand, gloves can increase the wear of the wheel rim material (leather, strands etc.), to a much higher level than bare hands would do. This additional wear cannot be covered by warranty. Testing capabilities are limited and it is impossible to test all types/brands of gloves, to make recommendations.

Because of this and the possibly increased wear & tear, Fanatec cannot give a general recommendation to use gloves.

What is the Fanatec SDK or what can you do with it?

The fanatec SDK is a package (VS based library) which lets programmers and developers use the extended features of our Fanatec Wheel and Pedal products. With use of the SDK code your game/software can

...make use of the additional wheel vibration/rumble motors (not the FFB motors)
...make use of the tuning display (for gear display, speeder, ...)
...make use of the vibration motors on ClubSport Pedals
...make use of the rev leds on ClubSport Wheel rims
...detect different Fanatec products if they have the same USB product ID (CSR or CSR Elite, etc.)
...detect the rim type connected to the ClubSport Wheel Base
...etc.

Is the Fanatec SDK available for anybody?

No, not in general. If you want to use the Fanatec SDK please contact our support team and mention what your plans are to use the SDK. After reviewing those plans you might receive a NDA which has to be signed before the SDK would be sent to you.

What is not a function of the Fanatec SDK?

The SDK is not necessary to get any output (pedal axis, steering wheel axis/rotation, button inputs) from our hardware. This is controlled by DirectInput only as our devices are HID standard devices.
The SDK is not necessary to send force feedback effects to the wheel. For that you will only need to install the driver and to send standard direct input commands for FFB.

So in gerneral all input/output and FFB features of our products do not need the SDK. It is only need for special Fanatec functions as mentioned on top of this article.
